LandSearch Scraper

Pull US land, farm, ranch and rural property listings from LandSearch at scale — asking price, acreage, computed price per acre, GPS coordinates, elevation, land-feature tags, price history, school district, MLS name and number, and verified listing-agent and brokerage contacts on every parcel. Built for land investors, ranch and farm buyers, rural real estate agents, land brokers, timber and hunting-lease operators, and appraisers who need a filterable, spreadsheet-ready land dataset without hand-building search URLs one county at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• 34 inputs, 30 of them real search filters — price, acreage, price per acre, property type, listing format, keywords, days on market, bedrooms, bathrooms, home size and year built. Type "Travis County, TX" and the search builds itself; no URL syntax to learn.
• 74 land-feature tags across 7 categories — terrain & setting (10), current land use (14), buildings on the land (12), utilities & improvements (6), natural features (14), recreational activities (8) and deal type (10). "Off-grid timberland with a creek and mineral rights" is four checkboxes.
• Price-per-acre filtering on both ends — set a minimum and maximum $/acre, the classic land-value screen, and get a computed pricePerAcre on every single row so you can rank an entire county in one sort.
• Owner-financing and for-sale-by-owner screens — Owner financing available, For sale by owner, Rent to own, Distressed and Unrestricted (no zoning limits) are one-click deal filters, backed by an isForSaleByOwner flag on every enriched row.
• GPS coordinates and elevation on every parcel — latitude, longitude, a location-precision label and elevation in feet, ready to drop straight into QGIS, Google Earth or any mapping layer.
• Verified listing-agent and brokerage contacts — agent name, phone, profile link, brokerage name and brokerage phone, plus the MLS name and MLS number when the listing originated from an MLS.
• Complete price history per property — every listing, price-change and status event with date, event label, price and status. Populated on 100% of detail-enriched rows in our 100-property Texas sample.
• Nationwide US coverage, searchable four ways — 426,000+ active listings addressable by state ("Texas"), county ("Travis County, TX"), city ("Austin, TX") or ZIP ("76082").
• 7 sort orders, including price and size in both directions — featured, newest, price high→low, price low→high, size large→small, size small→large and recently updated, so you can capture the top and the bottom of a market in two runs.

Every value below is a real LandSearch tag. Picking options across several boxes narrows the search each time — a property must match all of them at once.

includePropertyDetails	boolean	true	Also collect street address, full description, every photo, price history, land and building features, elevation, school district, MLS number, and agent contacts. Turn off for a fast overview.

Output

Tips for Best Results

• Start with 20–50 results to confirm the fields match your needs, then scale up. You are charged for exactly the number you ask for, so a small trial run stays cheap.
• A single search reaches every matching property. Texas alone has roughly 53,000 active listings and one run will walk all of them, so you only need to split a state into counties when you want the results grouped that way.
• Power user: sort deliberately when you cap the run. maxResults takes the first N in whatever order you chose, so price_low_high on a 500-result cap gives you the cheapest 500 in the county rather than an arbitrary 500 — and recently_updated surfaces the sellers who just moved on price.
• Land-feature boxes narrow, they never widen. A property must match every tag you tick across all seven feature categories at once. Add one tag, confirm you still get results, then add the next.
• maxPricePerAcre is the highest-yield first filter. Pair it with minAcres to strip out small suburban house lots that otherwise distort a county's average land value.
• Turn includePropertyDetails off for a fast market survey. You keep price, acreage, $/acre, coordinates, county and days on market — but street address, description, photo gallery, agent contacts and price history only arrive with it on.
• Keep URL runs and location runs separate. Anything in startUrls carries its own filters and ignores the filter panel, so mixing the two in one run makes result counts harder to predict.

Pricing

From $0.70 per 1,000 results — undercutting the only other LandSearch actor on the store while shipping 30 search filters it does not have. Bronze, Silver and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.084	$0.080	$0.075	$0.070
1,000	$0.84	$0.80	$0.75	$0.70
10,000	$8.40	$8.00	$7.50	$7.00
100,000	$84.00	$80.00	$75.00	$70.00

A "result" is one property row in your dataset. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee.
